TOILET SEAT.

Application filed February 15, 1922. Serial No. 536,707.

To all w 710m it may concern Be it known that I. ARTHUR Hess, a citizen ofthe United States, and resident of Los Angeles. in the county of Los Angeles, State of California. have invented new and useful Improvements in a Toilet Seat, of which the following is a specification.

This invention relates to a closet seat, which is a builteup structure presenting in effect an integral seat. Closet seats are commonly constructed of wood. To prevent splitting and cracking ofthe seat, it is the usual practice to build up the seatof a number of sections fastened together by dowel pins, cement, and the like. Such a structure provides a light, strong seat having some resiliency. X

It is the primary object of my invention to provide a seat built up of plastic material,

such as vulcanized rubber. It is another object of; this invention to provide a seat of this character which has a hollow core and is in efi'ect integral.

These objects together with other objects and corresponding accomplishments are obtained' by means of the embodiment of my invention illustrated in the accompanying drawing, in which:

Fig. 1 is a perspective view from the front of a seat built up'in accordance with my invention; and Fig. 2. is an enlarged vertical section as seen on the line 2'2 of Fig. 1.

The particular'seat shown is for illustrative purposes only, and the inventive-idea may be adapted to other styles of seats. Thus, open front seats, and saddle seats may be built up and embody the, inventive idea.

formed. this rubber being molded around a 50,

hollow form. An integral seat is thereby built up without joints and having no natural cleavage lines. Furthermore, the hollow core decreases the weight of the seat and adds to the resiliency thereof. The structure '55 is such that a square back may he provided,

as shown herein. Other forms or styles of I .backs may be provided. and the invention maybe embodied in any of the well known styles of seats now. on the market. It is obvious that the seat cover and other associated parts may be constructed in the same manner.

- What I claim is:

.A closet seat comprising a sheet metal core tubular in form and having teeth upset therefrom to form anchors, and vulcanizing material molded thereover and adhering to said teeth to form a hollow seat.

In witness that I claim the foregoing I '10 have hereunto subscribed my name this 10th day of February, 1922.
